tell the truth as if it were lies

'realism, romanticism, men as they seem, men as they are imagined or 'dramatised', men as they quite simply known NOT to be...'
-Ezra Pound

ABC of Reading by Ezra Pound. Recommendation.

'The intellectual love of a thing consists of understanding its perfections.'

Is that what I ask for when I say, 'understand me, do it'?

Maya is on a boat and I would like to be there with her, keeping everyone safe at night, stars and sea and avoiding other boats, hopping into new countries and buying food from strangers, sunshine and smiles all day, a little music, lots of reading, rocking around in a boat.
